Ears tilted to catch the echoing sounds that reverberated hollowly, swiveled as inquisitive blue eyes scanned over the birdsong warmed steppe. At last both gaze and ears focused on the dark opening in the ice, unable to find anywhere else that these unknown sounds could be coming from. Curiosity carried the young mare in swift steps closer, shadowed by a flowing, liquid form that blurred in and out of the shape of a fox.
She slowed somewhat as the sounds altered, quieted, then gained a repetitive quality before slowly increasing in volume. A heartbeat later she pulled up short as a somewhat familiar pair of figures stepped into the light, equine and draconic. Head high she studied them, probing her memory for why the snow-pale dragon and colorful horse tugged at her. A two-toned tail lashed, pale against mousey haunches and blending darkly with her legs, only to slap against the watery figure that hovered near her hooves. It dissipated, only to reform upon her haunches and split into two smaller forms that slid up her back and neck. A pair of watery ferrets joined her in her study then, perched in mane and between her ears.
And then it was like a bell sounded in her head, following the utterance of five simple words from the near stranger. This was one she'd known in early foal-hood, back when home was the shelter of willow trees. Back before home had been lost to shadow phantasms. "Adele?!?" She inquired in shocked recognition, stepping closer and dipping her head slightly in a friendly gesture to the older mare. "I barely recognized you. Why are you here, in the Frozen Arch?"
